Answer:

Explanation:

Geologists record the seismic waves and study how they travel through Earth. The speed of these seismic waves and the paths they take reveal how the planet is put together. Using data from seismic waves, geologists have learned that Earth's interior is made up of several layers.

A vinyl record is played by rotating the record so that an approximately circular groove in the vinyl slides under a stylus. Bum
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

Hits per second=199 hit/s

Explanation:

#Given the angular velocity, \omega=33\frac{1}{3} rev/min , radius of the record r=0.1m and the distance between any two successive bumps on the groove as d=1.75mm.

The linear speed of the record in meters per second is:

v=\omega r=33\frac{1}{3}\times\frac{2\pi}{60}\times 10\times 10^{_2}\\\\=0.3843m/s\\

#From v above, if the bumps are uniformly separated by 1m, then the rate at which they hit the stylus is:

Hits/second=v/d    \ \ \ \ d=1.75mm\\\\=0.3483/0.000175\\\\=199.0385714\approx 199

Hence the bumps hit the stylus at around 199hit/s

Per person, the energy consumption in the United States is about 3.3 × 10^8 Btu/yr. This is equivalent to a power of:________. A
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

3.3\times 10^8\ btu/yr=11\ kW

Explanation:

Btu of British thermal unit is a unit of heat. The relation between btu/year and watts is given by :

1\ btu/yr=3.343\times 10^{-5}\ W\\\\3.3\times 10^8\ btu/yr=3.343\times 10^{-5}\times 3.3\times 10^8\ W\\\\3.3\times 10^8\ btu/yr=11031.9\ W\\\\3.3\times 10^8\ btu/yr=11\ kW

So,  3.3\times 10^8\ btu/yr is equal to 11 kW. Hence, the correct option is (d).

A wind turbine is rotating counterclockwise at 0.626 rev/s and slows to a stop in 12.9 s. Its blades are 17.9 m in length. What
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

276.5 m/s^2

Explanation:

The initial angular velocity of the turbine is

\omega=0.626 rev/s \cdot 2\pi rad/rev =3.93 rad/s

The length of the blade is

r = 17.9 m

So the centripetal acceleration is given by

a=\omega^2 r

At the instant t = 0,

\omega=3.93 rad/s

So the centripetal acceleration of the tip of the blades is

a=(3.93 rad/s)^2 (17.9 m)=276.5 m/s^2

what is the force constant, in newtons per meter, needed to produce a period of 0.45 s for a 0.011-kg mass on the spring?
topjm [15]

The force constant is 2.145 N/m.

<h3>What is spring constant?</h3>
  • The spring constant is the force required to stretch or compress a spring divided by the distance traveled by the spring. It is used to determine whether a spring is stable or unstable.
  • K is the proportionality constant, also known as the 'spring constant.' Hooke's law (F = -kx) specifies stiffness and strength via the k variable. The greater the value of k, the greater the force required to stretch an object to a given length.

Using the relation;

T = 2π√m/k

T = time period = 0.45 s

m =  mass of object in kilograms = 0.011kg

k = spring constant

To find k based on the formula,

k = 4 × (3.142)^2 × 0.011 / (0.45 )^2

k = 2.145 N/m

Therefore the force constant is 2.145 N/m.
